@atomicfriendo You are the only troll I've ever seen that stuck to their opinion without a doubt. (and without a reason, but we'll just leave that out)
I have a friend that this sing reminds me of. His broken heart and my death in the family. Funny how a song can say things that you wouldn't be able to voice. LOVE IT.
Honestly I'm glad that some people 'dislike' these videos so I can gauge a songs awesomeness by the dislike to like ratio. This one's simplifies to 1:44.
@muefffler unnecessary are you really that unoriginal first the F word is for posers and second we all get it 8 people disliked this video and this song dose rock but they are allowed to have an opinion and we should all be able to respect it
@ImDiddyKongFTW Eagles and Pearl Jam far from suck. He's just as entitled to his opinion as you are. At least those bands are certified classics, not the scene stuff that most people on Youtube pride themselves for liking.
Regardless of this stupid argument, fantastic song. I was very disappointed with Dark Is the Way, Light Is a Place.
Sorry that comment didn't really even have any meaning but I don't think it's up to society as a whole to decide what is classic and what isn't. My decision in the end. Really I was just trolling a troll but sure take it seriously.
@masterjake99 Dark Is The Way really gives Cities a run for its money. It may be darker, but it's easily the most solid album they've put out. Which one you like more really depends on the side of Anberlin you like the most.
This song is amazing both acoustic and the original. The original is the first song I've heard of Anberlin. They've definitely become a big inspiration to my own musical writings.
@xVishDaFish Man i remember when i posted this. about a year ago. now that im older, i like this song a LOT better acoustic. you can hear the vocalists words so much clearer and can get a better understanding of the meaning behind his words.
What a bunch of losers getting on you about your grammer on youtube. Don't listen to them...they are just mad cause they got little dicks...it is scary though because what if someone that condesending had authority over you? Yikes! Be strong and beat assholes like that and then don't be a dick like them:) That is how will make things better, not with proper grammer like they are saying....I guess fuck them would be my main point to this message:)
That is a matter of opinion. Language is changing...so let it change because at this point it fails to express enough to stop the world from causing all of us to live wasted lives. And you forgot to capitalize the first word in your sentence but...oh well....we knew what you meant.
For me its about the first one i lost and i'll never get back but never forget :( I never got to touch and never will, never go to do anything I wanted with them while they loved me, distance kept us apart and this song rips my heart apart but listening to it is poison and a cure at the same time
Stephen's voice, perfect as ever! I personally like the album version of this song, with the electric guitars and all. :) (It seems to be a lot more passionate than this version.) But this one sounds a lot sadder, which fits the mood of the song as well.
This song is good, but I think the acoustic version removes a bit of the passion from the song. I've been an Anberlin fan since Blueprints and have met them all, gotten autographs and such, but I think that some of their music is better when they scream or raise their voices in it. It shows passion, and power in the song itself.
But my interpretation of this song is about a breakup, a breakup you're having trouble letting go of, trying to convince yourself that it'll get better.
@atomicfriendo- I can't tell if you're serious of not. :/
